Despite a recent public demand from the Republican candidate in the 24th Senate District race for a central Wisconsin municipal clerk to recuse himself in the Nov. 6 election, the clerk says he has no plans to do so.

Stevens Point City Clerk John Moe said there isn't any reason to recuse himself even though his wife, state Sen. Julie Lassa, D-Stevens Point, is on the ballot, saying he does not count the ballots.
